Food: Take a seat at graduates' table

So you've worked your fingers to the bone getting that degree, are you really going to celebrate with a pie and a pint at the local students' haunt?

Mark the occasion in style at The Balmoral Bar, where head bartender Chris Mcgirr has created a range of graduation cocktails - The Grass is Greener, Straight As and The Only Way is Up - to help toast your future.

And if you really want to push the boat out, celebrate with a Michelin-starred meal at The Balmoral's Number One restaurant, which is offering a graduation menu created by executive chef Jeff Bland. Three courses cost 50.

If George Street is more your style, TigerLily offers a two-course graduation lunch with glass of Prosecco thrown in for 20, three courses, 30.

And Rick's in Frederick Street is offering a graduation two-course lunch for 17.50 with Prosecco bubbly included in the price.
